This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Horrible Experience

She seems to agree with everything while discussing the subject. However, in terms of actions, significant procrastinator! This puts the client on a spot creating an embarrassing situation. You can handle this type of behavior once, twice or thrice but not every single time. She may be a procrastinat...or, but not when she expects to be paid before works starts which gives client no choice but to stick with her. She always likes to say to get your work done tomorrow and tomorrow never comes until the deadline comes.

H-1B Visa

I had an urgent matter concerning my niece who was trying to obtain a Visa for work in the United States. A friend recommended Leda Yu. I was pretty discouraged and was about to call my niece and tell her that I was just tired of calling lawyer after lawyer only to find out that they didn't specializ...e in H-1B Visas. My Aunt sounded so depressed so I promised her I would call. I called Leda Yu and her calm professional manner gave me hope. She told me that H-1B Visas are her area of expertise and gave me her history that led me to believe her. I put her in contact with my niece. My niece told me that Leda Yu kept her informed every step of the way. My niece called me one day and informed me that she received her Visa and was making travel plans. I have to thank Leda Yu and I could think of no better way than to write this review.

Very helpful and knowledgeable attorney!

Leda Yu was extremely helpful and is a tell like it is Attorney. With her advice and legal support, I was able to make a decision about my H-1b petition that was to my advantage. I could not have asked for better legal service, especially on such short notice.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
